It is unfortunate that HP and PSM allows poor drivers to run reasonable (not quick) lap times. It is up to an aware instructor corps to separate the car from the driver, and make their decisions based purely upon ability. The general driver pool, however, is not able to make that distinction, and so you hear the cry "I'm passing everybody, why aren't I moving up?"
What about a great driver in a 914-4? Do you keep him in blue because his car isn't fast on the straights, but catches them in the corners? Do you let him run solo in blue from the beginning of the event?
